a lot. Among them are the foil
lowing: Take SI5oand deposit
it in savings bank; ten years
interest compounded at 5 per
cent, which is the highest in
crest you can get, will amount
to about $3.50, A lot you can
buy to-day for 81, SS, 50 and
SIo per foot, in ten years will
surely net you from SIS to $50
per foot, and this assertion is
more than justified. For in
stance, seven years ago, lots
could be bought west of Broomc
(street to Woodland avenue, on
Front street, at $40 per foot; to-
lday you could not buy it for less
THAN SIS per foot, and some not
at that. Ten years ago lots on
lSccond, Third and Fourth
lsrreets, west of Jackson street to
| Broome street could be bought
for $40 per foot, now it ranges
lall the way from SIS to $40 per
foot, Again, look around where
